I went with him to pick it up from Kenny a couple of months ago .. no bodywork and looked gorgeous without it. Shouldn't be too long now before it is finished but pretty sure it will be next year though Or the year after 😀. Keep him focused Mark 👍😜

I think I can voice an opinion for many - I've really missed the updates on such an amazing bike. It's a bit like your Sky box not recording the end of your favourite film!

he has managed to get the 190 6 inch wheel into the rs250 swingarm . only 2 others ive seen done and they were a bit crude if you know what i mean rear is in and centralized to the front wheel tiny bit of machining left to do ,the amount of work gone into just this is stupid , the wheel itself has been in a lathe and so has the sprocket carrier carrier bearing is 35 quid nearly as it has to be very wide and very strong and take some hammer FAG BEARING im well happy with how it looks !
